Stardust Polish Swatch and Review

*Press Samples*

Hi everyone! Today I have a new to me indie brand to share with you, Stardust Polish. I was recently sent 3 of the polishes from their line to review including 2 core polishes and one upcoming release for fall. These polishes are available in the Stardust Polish Etsy shop, so check them out!

Indian Summer is a medium orange creme with strong gold shimmer. Formula was very easy to work with and had nice opacity and I got full coverage in 2 coats. The shimmer is super nice and glowy without being brushstrokey. If you bottled pumpkin pie filling and added some shimmer, it would be this polish so it is perfect for fall. This one has already been available for a pre-order period, but it will officially release in the Stardust Polish shop on October 16th.

Plundered Treasure is a dusty aqua jelly filled with sand and rose-gold holo microglitter and small caramel hex glitters. The formula of this one is sheer, but it builds up to nice squishy opacity in 3 coats and you can just see a slight hint of VNL. I love the combo of aqua with the golden shades and the name fits it perfectly! When I looked at Drema's shop I was drawn to this one instantly so I was so excited that it was in my swatch package!

Caroline is a black linear holo with blue/purple color shifting flecks. Formula one this one is nice and opaque with full coverage in 2 easy coats. This is a deep, rich black shade with no greying at all from the added holo. Because of this, the holo isn't super in your face, but it's definitely got a linear effect. The blue/purple flecks add some additional depth to the polish and sparkle when the light hits them. They were almost impossible for me to capture on camera, but you can see them more in the macro pictures.
